Transformers Universe (Jagex)

2014-12-16T22:53:33Z

Awa64:

{{disambig3|Universe}}
{{canceledtoy}}
[[File:JagexPresentsTransformersUniverse-Logo.png|center|600px]]
'''''Transformers Universe''''' is a free to play browser based massively online tactical action game, or MOTA<ref>[http://www.transformersuniverse.com/en/news/2014/2/state-of-the-factions-050214]</ref> that entered open beta testing July 4, 2014<ref>[http://services.transformersuniverse.com/m=forum_tu/l=0/forums.ws?1,2,41,7390 Open Beta - 4th July - Announcements - Transformers Universe Forum:]: We are proud to announce Transformers Universe will be throwing open its doors to the world when we go in to Open BETA this Friday, July 4th from 6am EDT and 11am GMT.
*[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/video-games-17/transformers-universe-beta-launch-press-release-180613/ Transformers Universe Beta Launch Press Release]</ref>. It is being developed by [[Jagex]] and it is set in the ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime]]'' portion of the [[Aligned continuity family]]. Gamers can choose to be an [[Autobot]] or a [[Decepticon]], obtain different characters, and pit them against one another in various challenges and battles to gather [[Relic]]s and [[Energon]].

It was announced on the 16th December 2014 that the game would begin a phased closure immediately, fully closing on the 31st January 2015, without ever having left beta testing<ref name="closure">[https://www.transformersuniverse.com/en/news/2014/12/important-tu-announcement-161214 The Future of Transformers Universe Announcement]: Today Jagex and Hasbro can confirm that Transformers Universe will close. This decision comes at an important time for both companies as they both realign their plans and focuses for 2015.... We’re hugely disappointed, but the game will be closing over the coming weeks before its full closure at 10am GMT on 31st January 2015.... As mentioned, on 31st Jan 2015 @ 10am GMT we will be shutting down all servers and forums and will freeze all Transformers Universe related accounts. These accounts will then be live for another 60 days (approx.) for any final queries before deletion on 31st March 2015.</ref>

The gameplay is very similar to other multiplayer battle arena games such as ''[[wikipedia:Dota 2|Dota 2]]'' or ''[[wikipedia:League of Legends|League of Legends]]''. Although the game features several ''Prime'' characters in minor roles, new introductions to the ''Prime'' mythos such as [[Prowl (WFC)|Prowl]] and [[Switchblade (Prime)|Switchblade]] take center stage.

==Synopsis==
According to creative director [[Alex DeRakoff]], the main story involves [[Optimus Prime (WFC)|Optimus Prime]] going missing, with the other [[Autobot]]s trying to keep his location a secret from [[Megatron (WFC)|Megatron]], who is travelling across the galaxy with his associates to track down Prime. <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2KA2QqiwVHo "Under the Hood: Episode 2"]</ref>

In the recent Autobot and Decepticon trailers, an additional segment of the plot was revealed: The [[Decepticon]]s have intercepted and shot down the Autobot spaceship ''[[Arclight (ship)|Arclight]]'', causing the surviving Autobots to crash-land on [[Earth]] (mostly the [[United States]]) aboard escape pods. This incident prompted the president to order "a national state of emergency and the total evacuation of eleven major cities." Optimus Prime contacted [[General Freeman]], who provided these Autobot refugees with a [[High Grand|base of operations]]. In return, the Autobots vowed to protect [[human]] civilization from the Decepticon threat.

==Gameplay==

There are currently three playable game modes, alongside a fourth "open world" map with no definite objective:

* '''Elimination''' pits Autobots against Decepticons. The first faction to reach 20 kills wins the match.
* '''Meteor Storm''' has both sides try to capture Energon meteor landing sites. The first team that gains 1000 points wins.
* '''Crisis''' is a player-vs-environment mode where teams fight hordes of [[Terrorcon]]s and gather energon before fighting a final boss.

In addition to these three game modes, players can also access a semi-open world area - [[High Grand]] for the Autobots, [[Central City]] for the Decepticons - and partake in occasional mini-missions (for instance, killing a set number of Terrorcons or repairing wounded NPCs). Completing these objectives (or partaking in one of the three aforementioned games) will grant the player relics, which can be used to unlock new warriors from the in-game store. Players can also buy, build, or find different components that have different effects in battle.

== Notes ==
*[[BotCon 2012]] attendees were able to reserve their in-game name at the convention.
* The game has gone through a couple of genre shifts. Initially slated to be released as an MMORPG with multiple classes and conventional character creation, but the [[Transformers: Fall of Cybertron|difficulty of customizing robots]] was cited as part of the reasoning in changing it to the quickly expanding MOBA genre. Right.<ref>
[http://www.edge-online.com/features/jagexs-transformers-universe-is-a-massively-multiplayer-action-rpg-that-puts-the-toy-box-robots-onto-the-battlefield/]</ref> It has since been declared to be a massively online, tactical action game by Mark Gerhard, CEO/CTO of Jagex.
* The November 2012 issue of Edge revealed both an early version of [[Firebreaker]] and [[Macro]] with the descriptors "Oppressor" and "Guardian".<ref>[http://www.edge-online.com/magazine/e248-transformers-universe-rolls-out-to-retool-the-action-rpg/]</ref>
* On April 25th, 2014, Founders Packs were revealed, along with founder exclusive bonuses and new characters.<ref> [https://www.transformersuniverse.com/founders-pack Founders Pack - Transformers Universe - Become a Founder]</ref> Each increasingly expensive pack, from Bronze to "[[Cybernite]]", grants a three day head start to play the game and various in game bonuses, in addition to season passes of various lengths of time and exclusive warriors. The most expensive at $449.99 dollars, the Cybernite pack also offers a limited edition ten inch diorama figurine showcasing Showdown and Shellshock in combat. Yeesh.
* Someone named [[Vectorium]] is quoted on Anomaly's page on the Transformers Universe website, referring to the green toxic youngster's capabilities in shock. Considering the pattern of the other Transformers Universe bios, all of whom quote pre-existing characters of the same faction, Vectorium is likely another Autobot. Meanwhile, Decepticon Diabla's page quotes a previously unknown Aligned continuity version of [[Snow Cat (Prime)|Snow Cat]].
*Between June 6-7th, 2014, five unreleased playable characters (Firebreaker, [[Contagion]], [[Outsider]], [[Cameo]] and Swagger) were leaked by some TFW2005/TFU forum users who toyed around with the generic link for model images of playable Autobots and Decepticons alike.
*As of July 4th, 2014, Transformers Universe has reached the Open Beta stage and the NDA was lifted. Additionally, more Bots, such as [[Rollcage]],<ref>[https://cdn.transformersuniverse.com/img/main/bot-pages/unity-fallback/bots/rollcage.png]</ref><ref>[https://cdn.transformersuniverse.com/img/main/bot-pages/unity-fallback/vehicles/rollcage.png]</ref> and others (without names) were leaked.<ref>[https://cdn.transformersuniverse.com/img/main/profile/warriors/large/807403543.png]</ref><ref>[https://cdn.transformersuniverse.com/img/main/profile/warriors/large/807403526.png]</ref>
*A veritable cornucopia of information came out on September 5th. Officially announced on that date were a new challenger system and playable characters Outsider and Pandemic due that month along with updated maps. Flamewar and Chromia were revealed to be coming out in October with a new game mode, Recon.<ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/video-games-17/jagex-transformers-universe-game-update-new-modes-and-characters-181101/</ref> In addition, a vast number of character models were found by a dataminer, including early versions of released characters, unrevealed new characters, models with pre-existing character names as placeholders and character models for cast members of Transformers: Prime. New characters included [[Bombast]], [[Clear-Cut]], [[Backlash (Universe)|Backlash]], [[Flood]], [[Stiletto (Universe)|Stiletto]], [[Pitstop]], [[Pandemic]], [[Breakneck (Universe)|Breakneck]], and [[Mayday]]. Prime cast members [[Knock Out (Prime)|Knock Out]], [[Bulkhead (Prime)|Bulkhead]], [[Wheeljack (Prime)|Wheeljack]], and [[Breakdown (WFC)|Breakdown]] got models, and the in-engine appearance of [[Barricade (WFC)|Barricade]] was confirmed, turning into an SUV. <ref>http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/video-games-17/jagex-transformers-universe-new-characters-including-prime-knock-out-181099/</ref>
*On December 16th with the announcement that the game would close at the end of January 2015, still in beta<ref name="closure"/>, Jagex announced that all Founders Pack, relic bundles and starter packs would be refunded.

Awa64:

This is the page for the '''TFWiki.net Transformers Hall of Fame Auditions''' entries. The rules are as follows:

#You must pick your top five ''Transformers'' characters, from any era. They must actually '''be''' Transformers; sorry, but no humans, non-Transformer aliens, non-Transformer robots, or anything else of the sort are being considered for the Hall of Fame. Any votes for such entities will '''not''' be tabulated. It is the sole discretion of the contest organizers to decide what does and does not count.
#Take your top five list and '''put it in alphabetical order'''. Order of preference does not matter. Feel free to denote the character's franchise of origin, although these distinctions may or may not figure into the final results.
#You '''cannot''' vote for a specific version of Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron, Starscream, Dinobot, Ironhide, Ratchet, Soundwave, or Waspinator. They've already been inducted!
##You '''also''' can't vote for '''Grimlock, Jazz or Shockwave'''. They're being automatically inducted this year!
#'''However, you CAN vote for ''[[Beast Wars (franchise)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] or [[Optimus Primal]]! Hasbro considers them separate!'''
#Only one entry per user.

Please put your characters of choice and user name below in the following manner:

Bumblebee (Movie)/toys

2011-05-04T07:00:25Z

Awa64: It's at over $1.5 billion from 2007 and ROTF's domestic and foreign box office takes, let alone DVD and merch sales. I don't think "multi-billion" is an exaggeration at this point.

{{picsneeded|various stuff}}
{{suite}}

'''[[Bumblebee (Movie)|Bumblebee]]''' is the star of a [[Live-action film series|multi-billion-dollar film franchise]]. Ergo, he gets a lot of toys and merchandise!

==Toys==
===Transformers (2007)===
====Legends Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovielegends.jpg|right|300px|thumb|It's not a fiesta with racing stripes... it's a fiesta OF racing stripes!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Legends Class, 2007)
**''Japanese name:'' '''EZ Collection Bumblebee'''

: Legends Bumblebee transforms into a yellow 1976 Chevrolet Camaro. Being a highly simplified toy of a highly complex design, Legends-class Bumblebee does not replicate the appearance of the robot mode very well, and has very limited articulation, detail and paint application. On the other hand, he's pocket-sized and inexpensive, perfect for the younger set. The toy has a sculpted rear window, but it's not painted like the other windows. instead, the racing stripes extend over them.

{{-}}
*'''Optimus Prime bonus pack''' (Costco exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

:A Costco exclusive special pack of Leader Class Optimus Prime with Legends Class Bumblebee and [[Jazz (Movie)|Autobot Jazz]] as bonus figures. None of the three toys is changed from their respective original releases.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Allspark Legends pack.jpg|right|300px|thumb|The classic G1 cast...plus Barricade.]]
*'''Battle for the Allspark''' (Toys'R'Us exclusive multi-pack, 2007)

: A Toys'R'Us exclusive, this six-pack of Legends class figures contains unmodified toys of [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]], [[Jazz (Movie)|Jazz]], Bumblebee, [[Megatron (Movie)|Megatron]], [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] and [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]].

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee Scanning Ver.''' (''Hyper Hobby'' magazine exclusive EZ Collection variant, 2007)

: A Japanese-exclusive version of the Legends Bumblebee toy, "scanning version" Bumblebee uses transparent plastics for his yellow parts. He was available as a mail-order item from ''Hyper Hobby'' magazine in September of 2007.

{{-}}
[[Image:Melltallic Bumblebee.jpg|right|300px|thumb|You know you know you want me]]
*'''Metallic Bumblebee''' (Tsutaya Records exclusive EZ collection variant, 2007)

: This Japanese metallic repaint of Legends class Bumblebee is an exclusive included with purchase of the Movie DVD at Tsutaya Records.

{{-}}

[[Image:Movie Legends Bumblebee Scorponok toys.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Bee stings.]]
*'''Bumblebee vs. Scorponok''' (Legends Allspark Battles two-pack, 2008)

: As part of the ''AllSpark Battles'' Legends two-packs, a slightly redecoed Legends class Bumblebee, now sporting "battle damage" paint applications, comes with an all-new Legends [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] figure.

{{-}}
====Deluxe Class toys====
[[Image:Bumblebeemovietoydeluxe67.jpg|right|300px|thumb|These used cars are fully loaded!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Classic Camaro, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: The first Deluxe Class version of Movie Bumblebee transforms into a yellow [[wikipedia:Second-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|1976 Chevrolet Camaro]] with a quite reasonable level of sculpted detail. In contrast to the other Deluxe-class car Transformers in the Movie toyline, he does not have clear windows, instead opting for opaque yellow plastic with painted metallic blue.

: Bumblebee is armed with two shoulder-mounted spring-loaded missile launchers (inspired by the shoulder-mounted missile launchers he uses to fight Brawl/Devastator in the movie), which also double as hand-held weapons or can be mounted on ports on the undersides of his elbows. His legs and chest [[Automorph]] during transformation.

: The initial release of the toy featured even tabs for the Automorph gimmick; oddly, Hasbro later decided to [[retool]] the feature so the tab would be uneven.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=29613 Original Allspark thread about the retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref> This resulted in many reported cases of the tab snapping during transformation. Press the button or you'll break him. Seriously. The retooled Automorph gimmick would be used for all subsequent versions of the mold, including the Japanese ones, and the breakage problem wouldn't be fixed until the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack and the Target exclusive "Evolution of a Hero" two-pack.

[[Image:Movie Deluxe 1974 Bumblebee JPtoy.jpg|left|300px|thumb|Never seen so much translucent plastic in all my life.]]
: Packaging photos and early [[Prototype|test shots]] of Hasbro's Bumblebee featured transparent blue plastic windows and missile parts. However, the final Hasbro production toy has opaque yellow plastic. The Japanese [[TakaraTomy]] release of Bumblebee retains the transparent blue plastic parts, with yellow paint for the outer car shell. As a consequence, the missiles, which are on the same sprue, are also made of clear blue plastic, just like the early prototype seen in the Hasbro stock photos for the toy. He also uses the retooled version of the mold with the fixed [[Automorph]] gimmick.

The packaging used for the Japanese toy is the same as for the Hasbro version, with the exception of additional stickers identifying it as a Japanese market release.

{{-}}
[[Image:Bumblebee Barricade deluxeboxset.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"Go ahead, make my day!"]]
*'''Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter''' (Deluxe two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This battle pack contains the 1976 Camaro deluxe-class Bumblebee and the deluxe-class [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]]/[[Frenzy (Movie)|Frenzy]] figures, based upon their confrontation as seen in the movie. The box features a diorama-style background from a movie scene, but the toys themselves are unchanged from their original carded releases.

: The set originally retailed for only slightly less than buying the two individual toys. However, for a short while, it was about the only way to ''get'' Bumblebee in the first place, thanks to the [[Movie (toyline)|toy drought]] following the movie's record-smashing opening.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee Limited Metallic Color Version''' (Lawson exclusive Deluxe-sized Classic Camaro, TakaraTomy 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: A redeco of the Japanese version of the Classic Camaro Bumblebee mold (retaining the clear blue windows and missiles) that was exclusively available with the purchase of a ticket for the movie in Japanese Lawson stores.

{{-}}
{{picsneeded}}

[[Image:Movie TowedtoSafety toys.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Sadly, All Spark Insurance doesn't cover towing charges.]]
*'''Towed to Safety''' (Deluxe two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles

: This set features an unaltered Deluxe class [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] figure and a Deluxe class 1976 Camaro Bumblebee figure. The window box features a diorama background of the battle in [[Mission City]] (basically the same packaging inner tray from the "Bumblebee vs. Barricade: First Encounter" pack). As is generally the case with the European releases of the Movie toys, the pictures on the front of the box show the robot-mode toys instead of an artist's depiction of their faces.

: For this two-pack, Hasbro slightly retooled Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick again, adding another small tab that finally resolved the breakage issues that had plagued the previous variation of the mold.<ref>[http://www.allspark.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=38149 Allspark thread about the second retool of Bumblebee's Automorph gimmick]</ref>

:Thus far, this pack has only been released in the United Kingdom.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Deluxe 2009 Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Nu-uh! You don't want none of this!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''MA-10'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: The second Deluxe class Bumblebee toy, which shares no parts with the previous one (even the head, despite being based on the same general design, is a different sculpt), transforms into the [[wikipedia:Fifth-generation_Chevrolet_Camaro|concept vehicle for the 2009 Chevrolet Camaro]]. Maintaining the high standard for car accuracy in the movie line, Bumblebee is very faithful to the real-life vehicle, featuring clear blue windows in contrast to the opaque windows seen in both his previous Deluxe class toy and the Ultimate Bumblebee toy.

: Bumblebee features two [[Automorph|Automorphing]] gimmicks during transformation: ''(a)'' swinging his hood down into robot mode position also moves his arms up and ''(b)'', swinging his feet down will move the rear fenders up and behind his calves, as well as swinging the rear windows to his inner calves in a spring-loaded action. Unusually, this version of Bumblebee is much more accurate to the CGI design than either the older-model Deluxe OR the Ultimate figure, with the chest properly articulating in a fairly Movie-accurate manner. He's also slightly taller than most of the other Deluxe Class figures.

: Bumblebee features a superb range of articulation, with ball joints in his shoulders, neck, torso, wrists and upper legs, with ratcheting and swivels making up the remaining joints. Instead of the rather inaccurate missile launchers from the 1976 Camaro toy, '09 Bumblebee comes with a mostly accurate version of his plasma cannon as it appears in the movie, but for added play value, it can Automorph into an energy blade by opening up the halves of the gun barrel and swinging them back. The cannon can be held in either of his hands.

: Care should be taken when removing the cannon from Bumblebee's hands, as excessive force can damage the wrist ball joint socket.

: Contrary to popular opinion, the yellow pieces on the back of Bumblebee's feet are ''not'' supposed to be heel spurs, nor have they been mis-assembled. They are supposed to fold up to emulate the detail found on the CGI design.

: A running change version of this mold adds tabs to the hip panels, which makes the vehicle mode hold together better, as well as sculpted pupils inside Bumblebee's eyes.<ref>[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/showthread.php?t=144325 TFW2005 thread about the retool for the second Deluxe Bumblebee toy]</ref> Initially this was believed to be a variant for the Japanese market; however, later shipments of the Hasbro toy featured those changes as well, as did all subsequent versions of the mold.

: This mold was also used to make "Allspark Power" [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee Evolutionofahero.jpg|right|300px|thumb|Hey, look, Concept Camaro, now ''you're'' the piece o' crap.]]
*'''Evolution of a Hero''' (Target exclusive two-pack, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' 2 projectiles, Plasma cannon

: A Target exclusive, this figure multi-pack contains an unchanged Deluxe-class 1976 Bumblebee and an exclusive "battle damaged" 2009 Camaro Concept Bumblebee. Even though the 2009 figure is supposed to represent Bumblebee's damaged state as he appeared during the final battle in the movie, oddly enough the "damage" paint decos do not appear to extend to his legs, restricting themselves to his upper torso and car roof/door parts. Maybe they didn't bother because they thought you'd take them off like in the movie. Go figure.

:The Classic Camaro Bumblebee toy included in this package features the same "fixed" Automorph gimmick also found on the version included in the UK exclusive "Towed to Safety" two-pack. In addition, the Automorph button on the hood ''finally'' sports the painted pinstripes that had been missing on ''all'' previous releases of the mold.

{{-}}
*'''Bumblebee and Optimus Prime''' (Argos exclusive two-pack, UK 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: A two-pack, exclusively available at Argos stores in the United Kingdom, which contains an unchanged Voyager-class [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] and an equally unchanged Deluxe-class Concept Camaro Bumblebee.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles CaptureofBB.jpg|right|300px|thumb|You'll never take me alive!]]
*'''Capture of Bumblebee''' (Screen Battles diorama pack, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-04'''
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes a [[Redeco|redecoed]] Camaro Concept Deluxe-class Bumblebee featuring a more accurate gray color scheme for his robot mode parts and a silver-painted face, Autobot symbol and toes. Additionally, a new red Autobot symbol is placed on his forehead, while his translucent parts are now a greener blue. The pack also comes with non-posable figurines of [[Sector Seven]] agent [[Seymour Simmons]] and two Sector Seven soldiers; one carrying a cryo-freezing cannon and one carrying a grenade launcher.

: This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the scene in which Bumblebee is captured by Sector Seven forces.

:According to details listed in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this pack was originally supposed to feature "ice soldiers" (plural), in addition to an "S7 agent" and an "S7 soldier". Apparently budget ultimately only allowed for one. The grenade launcher-wielding S7 soldier also looks conspicuously like [[William Lennox|Captain Lennox]] colored as a Sector Seven soldier (it's possible that the figure had originally been intended for the Screen Battles "Desert Attack" pack with [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]]).

*'''All Spark-Enhanced Bumblebee''' (Target Exclusive Deluxe, 2007)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: This Target exclusive features the Deluxe Class Bumblebee in unique cylindrical packaging, with the only difference from his standard release being that key robot mode parts are highlighted by the slavish 'All Spark Blue' color for no other reason than [[to sell toys]].

*'''Stealth Bumblebee''' (Deluxe Class Concept Camaro, 2008)
**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

: Stealth Bumblebee is an extensive redeco and minor retool of the Deluxe class 2009 Camaro Bumblebee toy. The redeco itself is unusual in that the yellow parts are still cast in yellow plastic, but painted black. Other color differences include changing the robot mode body parts from black to gray and adding bright blue ''AllSpark Power'' decos.

:The head has also been retooled to reflect Bumblebee's 'battle mask' as seen in the Movie. The "mask" does not flip up to reveal his head. Bummer.

:Downloadable content for the [[Revenge of the Fallen (Xbox 360/PS3/PC)|Xbox 360/PS3 version of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' game]] features this deco as an alternate skin for Bumblebee.

**''Accessories:'' Plasma cannon

:This [[redeco]] of the Deluxe-class Concept Camaro toy features a similar deco as the Screen Battles version in terms of plastic colours, but replaces the head sculpt with the "battle mask" sculpt previously used for Stealth Bumblebee. All of his outer car body panels have been coated in a metallic yellow paint job.

:A Walmart [[exclusive]] three pack, ''The Legacy of Bumblebee'' collector's set comes with [[Bumblebee (G1)|''Classics'']], Movie Deluxe Concept Camaro ([[Premium Series]]) and ''[[Transformers Animated (franchise)|Animated]]'' [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]] figures. While the ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' Bumblebees are identical to their original, single carded releases, the ''Classics'' Bumblebee has been redecoed to more closely resemble his ''Movie'' and ''Animated'' counterparts, changing his white stripes to black, and his grey/silver plastic to yellow, similarly to ''Henkei! Henkei!'' Bumble.

====Screen Battles====
[[Image:Movie ScreenBattles FinalStand1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"Half a bee, philosophically/ Must, ipso facto, half not be./ But half the bee has got to be/ Vis-a-vis, its entity. D'you see?"]]
*'''Final Stand''' (Screen Battles, 2007)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''SB-02'''

: This ''Screen Battles'' pack comes with an altered [[Longarm (Movie)|Longarm]] toy and a posable, non-transforming, battle-damaged Bumblebee figure very similar to the ''Robot Replicas'' toy, yet surprisingly utilizing none of the same parts despite being on an identical scale. This set comes in a special window box featuring a diorama background of the battle in Mission City.

:Although entirely comprised of original sculpting, such as the gimpy leg-stumps, the Bumblebee figure oddly does not feature the character's distinctive car door "wings" on his back. However, keen [[customizing|customisers]] can easily rectify this by slicing the "Robot Replicas" version's wings off and whittling their connecting plastic into simple posts that very handily plug into large holes in the tires on Final Stand 'Bee's back. In fact, these holes almost seem designed to accommodate a missing part. (Considering how all the other Screen Battles sets were apparently originally intended to feature more, or at least more elaborate, accessory figures based on their entries in an official checklist on Hasbro's website{{fact}}, this seems indeed very plausible.)

{{-}}
====Ultimate====
[[Image:Ultimate Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|All those extras and they couldn't make me more accurate than the deluxe class toy.]]
*'''Ultimate Bumblebee''' (Ultimate, 2007)
**''Accessories:''

: Similar in appearance to the second Deluxe-class Bumblebee toy, albeit much larger and more complex, the 'Ultimate' version of Bumblebee also transforms into the 2009 concept Camaro. The toy features animatronic movement in robot mode (flapping wings, moving arms and a rotating head) and light-up eyes and headlights, activated by the movement or sounds made by the person playing with the toy, or by pressing his buttons, which also activate an obscene number of interactive electronic sound effects. Oddly enough, despite being mute for most of the movie, Bumblebee has a wide range of phrases (Which don't even sound like him). His chest button yields various phrases and a new version of the ''Transformers'' theme tune, while a button on his side produces blaster noises, more speech, and musical samples, including four different ones from Devo's "Whip It." This button also causes the toy to raise its cannon-arm and automatically fire a missile. Playing with the toy by moving it will make him repeat various phrases and samples activated by other features, as well as crashing battle noises, but when he is left idle, more unique phrases will be uttered inquiring where everyone has gone, as well as radio snippets to the same effect, before the toy eventually deactivates. Pressing any button will bring him back online with a cheerful shout.

: Transforming the toy between modes is accompanied by the classic transformation noise, and if left unattended between modes, it will make stalling engine noises, car horn and a car alarm sounds. Once in car mode, new electronics are unlocked, beginning with the sound of an engine starting up. The chest button now activates the car's horn, and rolling the figure along will create an accelerating noise that increases the faster the toy is moved. More unique musical snippets will play as the car rolls along; when the rolling stops, brake lights activate and the tires screech. Yet more sounds are produced when Bumblebee is rolled backwards, and the car mode also features different crashing battle noises to the robot mode.

: All of the toy's features can be turned off by a switch, and it has an additional "Try Me" mode which allows you to hear various sounds from the toy's various functions just by pressing the chest button.

: The toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure made the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block resting on Bumblebee's chest. In reality, it splits up into five separate pieces to fold and collapse into a more movie-like appearance.

: In the holiday season, Wal-Mart carried an exclusive "Bonus Buy" version of the toy, which had the Deluxe [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Scorponok (Movie)|Scorponok]] toys added as freebies. Costco also carried an exclusive version, with the 3" [[Titanium Series]] version of Bumblebee packed in. However, it did not include the display stand.

**''Accessories:'' Plasma Bolt

:[[Fast Action Battler|Fast Action Battlers]] Bumblebee transforms from concept Camaro to robot with a considerably simpler transformation than the standard deluxe toy, intended for the slightly younger set. His main "gimmick" is a spring-loaded missile launcher in his right arm. As is also the case with Ultimate Bumblebee, the toy is mistransformed in the package, and all promo photos of the figure make the same mistake, presenting the car hood as a solid block. In reality, the chest/bumper consists of two rotating pieces which can pivot down so as to more accurately emulate the appearance in the movie.

====Cyber Slammers toys====

*'''Bumblebee''' (Classic Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

: Cyber Slammers Bumblebee is an amazingly cute 1976 Camaro that transforms into an amazingly cute Autobot buddy of human characters. "Slam" his robot mode down into car mode and he rolls along for a while, then snaps back up into robot mode.

: This toy was also made available during the 2007 holiday season as a freebie "Bonus Buy" packaged with Cyber Stompin' [[Optimus Prime (Movie)|Optimus Prime]] at Wal-Mart stores.

{{-}}
[[Image:Movie Bumblebee CamaroConcept CyberSlammer.jpg|right|300px|thumb|And so, Bumblebee rejoins the Throttlebots.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Concept Camaro Cyber Slammer, 2007)

:The second [[Cyber Slammers]] Bumblebee figure toy transforms into a Concept Camaro and shares no parts with the previous Cyber Slammers Bumblebee figure. Like all Cyber Slammers, the toy features motorized action. When you push down on the car, it zooms forward, then pops up into robot mode! Sure to please the toddler you brought with you to the PG-13 movie. Like most Cyber Slammers, Bumblebee manages to cram most of his vehicle mode's major details into a compact, super-deformed version of that mode.

: This toy was later redecoed into [[Cliffjumper (Movie)|Cliffjumper]].

{{-}}
====Trans-Scanning====
[[Image:Movie TranScanning Bumblebee toy.jpg|right|300px|thumb|whY mY SHoUlDeRs hUrT?(Now I know how Hot Shot feels)]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (2008)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''TS-02'''
**''Accessories:'' Display stand

: [[Trans-scan|Trans-scanning]] Bumblebee is a Japanese-exclusive figure with many interchangeable parts. At its most basic, the figure is a spindly skeleton referred to as a "Core Body". To this skeleton, two sets of armor pieces can be attached to create one of two forms for Bumblebee: his [[protoform]] mode or his Earth mode.

: The protoform mode consists of eight pieces of golden plastic that plug into the arms, chest, pelvis and legs of the figure. With these pieces attached, the figure can be manipulated in a manner that might charitably be called "transformation" into his meteor-like "entry mode," accomplished by doing little more than tucking the head out of sight and folding the chest back. This golden-and-grey lump can be mounted on a three-piece stand that comes with the figure, allowing you to display it in mid-plummet. Bumblebee's Earth mode, meanwhile, is made up of nineteen armor pieces (including a particularly large backpack) that form a rather [[Kibble|kibbly]] robot mode, which can then transform into a Camaro Concept.

: Bumblebee also includes a pair of interchangeable, open-palmed hands that can be swapped out for the clenched fists that are in place in-package. The Core Body mold was re-used for the simultaneously released Trans-Scanning [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys|Optimus Prime]] figure.

====Cyber Stompin' robots====
[[Image:Bumblebeemoviecyberstompin.jpg|right|150px|thumb|These boots were made for—you know the rest.]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Cyber Stompin' Robots, 2007)

: [[Cyber Stompin' Robots]] Bee is a large electronic action figure, featuring a rather cutified design. He's got electronic lights and sounds up the whazzoo and fires missiles and a fist. He totally plays the original theme song.

: Later in the year, Wal-Mart stores sold this toy as a "Bonus Buy" item, which came with a free Cyber Slammer [[Barricade (Movie)|Barricade]] attached to the box back.

{{-}}
====Robot Replicas====
[[Image:Movie RobotReplica Bumblebee.jpg|right|150px|thumb|Heli-pack not included]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Robot Replicas, 2007)

: As part of the [[Robot Replicas]] sub-line, this version of concept-Camaro Bumblebee is a non-transforming action figure that hews very close to the movie's CGI model. It features joints similar to the [[Revoltech]] toys, plus his right forearm can be replaced with his blaster-arm (or any other arm attachments from other Robot Replicas, which could lead to some fun Frankensteins). For some reason, he's closer to orange than his normal yellow.

====Micro IR Transformers Cars====

*'''Bumblebee''' (2007)

: Made by [[RadioShack]] under license from [[Hasbro]] and [[Dreamworks]]. The three-function infrared remote, in Bumblebee's signature colors, gives you control of the car with forward and reverse turn movement. More than just a car styled after the Movie character, the car also transforms to robot mode. The top of the gun-shaped IR remote's barrel serves as a display stand. The tip of the gun barrel can also be unscrewed, revealing a pen (!) inside.

**''Accessories:'' Movie-style Autobot sigil display stand

: This Bumblebee is a three-inch tall painted mini-statue of his 1976 Camaro body form. He features die-cast in his torso and thighs, and he has swivel joints at the shoulders, head and waist. Oh, and he comes with a Movie-style Autobot logo base to stand on.

: This item was also packed in with Ultimate Bumblebee as a Costco-exclusive set.

: This mold was later used to make ''Titanium Series'' [[Cliffjumper (Movie)#Titanium Series|Cliffjumper]] for ''[[Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen]]''.

:''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends class Bumblebee is based upon the updated Camaro Concept featured in the movie (unlike the 2007 Legends class Bumblebee which was based on the 1976 Camaro).

*'''Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RA-03'''
**''Accessories:'' Pulse Missile

:Released as part of the preview series of figures for [[Revenge of the Fallen (toyline)|Revenge of the Fallen's toyline]] alongside [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]], Bumblebee is a retool of the Camaro Concept Bumblebee mold, feature a new vehicle front end, hood and wheels to reflect the changes to the prop vehicle used in the movie; and in robot mode has a new, more accurate headsculpt. His right arm has been retooled to accommodate a built-in spring-loaded plasma cannon, replacing the converting plasma cannon/blade weapon from the previous version of this mold. Don't look at his eyes for too long, you'll have nightmares.

:Strangely, the missile for his right arm is slightly too long for the slot in the arm itself, so it either has to be slightly cut down to fit or the cannon must be swiveled outwards to accommodate the missile. (This has been fixed in later releases, such as the European market). Also, instead of having movie accurate gray colored "toe" sections on his feet like the later 2007 figures, his toes are ''painted'' yellow ...on top of yellow plastic. Oookay...

{{-}}{{anchor|Cannon}}
[[Image:ROTFtoy-CannonBumblebee.jpg|right|thumb|300px|New from the ass up!]]
*'''Cannon Bumblebee''' (Deluxe, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RA-14'''

:This extensive retool of Bumblebee changes the entire upper half of the robot mode, and thus half of the car, to newly designed parts, including more articulated arms with open palms, less obstructive vehicle [[kibble]], a differently transforming chest, and two flip-out (non-firing) missile launcher racks behind his head. Only the legs remain unaltered from the original version of the mold. Interestingly, his arms can be detached and easily popped onto the original mold, resulting in a more [[show-accuracy|show-accurate]] robot mode, though this sacrifices transformation. This extensive retooling results in a car interior with seats and a crude dashboard, but the windows are so opaque that these new details can't easily be seen. A variant with clear blue windows was released in later shipments.

:His "heels" are assembled backwards, which keeps them from being folded up against the back of the shins. Disappointingly, his chest cannot deform like the previous releases of this mold (or his Fast Action Battler, which still has a deforming chest).

====Human Alliance====

*'''Bumblebee''' / '''Sam Witwicky''' (Human Alliance, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''RA-21'''
**''Accessories:'' 2 Missiles

:Human Alliance Bumblebee comes with a posable figure of [[Sam Witwicky]] that can fit inside in Bumblebee's vehicle mode (plugging into his seat via a small hole in his back) and drive him. In robot mode, Bumblebee's vehicle-mode seats end up on his arms, and Sam can sit in either of them; the seat on Bumblebee's right has a headrest that can fold down to look slightly less conspicuous in robot mode, while the seat on Bumblebee's left arm features a pair of cannons which flip over Sam's shoulders, offering him some offensive hardware to protect his rather precarious position. Sam can also stand on a platform that flips out from the small of Bumblebee's back (again, via peg-holes on his feet), manning a small non-firing cannon that flips out over Bumblebee's right shoulder. Finally, Bumblebee's left palm also contains a peg, meaning Sam can securely stand or sit in his big buddy's hand. Bumblebee himself features a spring-loaded cannon for his left arm, which can fire the two missiles the figure comes with, a flip-out double-barreled silver cannon that points over his head, and a functional flip-down battle mask. Much like the rest of his Human Alliance brethren, Bumblebee is roughly the same size as an ''[[Alternators]]'' toy, being slightly taller than ''Alternators'' [[Mirage (G1)|Mirage]] in robot mode.

[[Image:Human Alliance Bumblebee Prototype.jpg|thumb|150px|left|Modders, vindicated by the prototype.]]
:There is a significant [[misassembly]] issue with Bumblebee: according to TakaraTomy's images of the resin [[prototype]] as well as Bumblebee's CG design, the retail toy's legs are on the wrong sides of his body, so the details on his legs are inverted. Since the instructions reflect this assembly, it's possible that this was [[design change|done on purpose]] because with the toy in its originally intended assembly, the waist section could be rather difficult to transform for children. The toy's originally intended assembly can still be [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/radicons-customs/243649-human-alliance-bumblebee-leg-mod.html easily achieved by disassembling his crotch and reassembling the legs backwards.] Once this is complete, Bumblebee will look the way he was intended to look, while adding some minor extra steps during transformation.

[[Image:ROTF GravityBot Bumblebee.jpg|thumb|300px| The evolution of Jumpstarters!]]
*'''Bumblebee''' (Gravity Bot, 2009)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''GB-02'''

:Plonk him down. Lift him up. Plonk him down. Lift him up. This addictive toy transforms automatically when stood up (vehicle to robot), or placed on his back (robot to vehicle). A switch underneath his feet or his car mode releases the transformation — so the toy can be played with in relatively stable modes if held in the air, or just rolling along the ground.

:Because gravity is the powering force in the transformation there's no motors to wear out or batteries to use up when playing with the toy. Which is good, because you will be transforming him no less than nine million times.

:Bumblebee features dumpy proportions and low movie accuracy (no door wings here), forced upon the toy to accommodate the [[Gravity Bot]]s transformation gimmick. His robot mode has no articulation, not even head. But at least he has big feet! Or legs... or whatever the heck they are. Stump? At least he has a big stump.

:This entirely new Deluxe class Bumblebee for the ''[[Transformers (2010 toyline)|Transformers'' (2010)]] toyline features a much more accurate sculpt in robot mode compared to previous versions of Deluxe class Camaro Concept Bumblebee, with the transformation scheme taking many cues from ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Human Alliance Bumblebee, scaled down to Deluxe size, while using an [[Automorph Technology|Automorph]] design for the leg transformation directly based on the original Deluxe Class Concept Camaro Bumblebee. Despite the very similar looks, Battle Blade Bumblebee uses no parts from previous toys, everything about him is an entirely new sculpt.

:His right hand can be switched out for his cannon by opening the arm guard, flipping out the cannon barrel, folding away the right hand and folding the cannon over to the wrist. Due to how the parts were distributed on the plastic sprues during production, the cannon barrel is yellow rather than grey. The left arm-guard has a flip-out axe made of transluscent blue plastic, representing the axe weapon Bumblebee uses in the [[Revenge of the Fallen (video games)|''Revenge of the Fallen'' video games]], which itself is possibly based upon the electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stinger]] that was once considered as a melee weapon for Bumblebee in the first movie. The axe is spring-loaded, activated by a button on his arm-guard. This version of Movie Bumblebee also features a flip-down battle mask, very similar to Human Alliance Bumblebee. In other words, pure premium awesome-sauce.

:Stock photos show that the axe was originally made in such a way that the blade was mounted on a rod and could be rotated downwards, but this was changed entirely for unknown reasons (possibly fragility). As a result, the blade is mounted upside-down.

:The Japanese ''Autobot Alliance'' release features marginally darker yellow plastic and paint.

The thumbs and insides of his upper arms are also painted brown. The windows are clear and untinted.

*'''Bumblebee Voice Changer'''
**''Parts:'' Antennas(l+r), Side pieces (l+r), Helmet top, Adjustable straps (pre-installed), Battery cover (pre-installed), Switch retainer (red!), AAA batteries (3), Helmet.

:The Bumblebee voice changer helmet, much like the [[Optimus Prime (Movie)/toys#Optimus_Prime_Voice_Changer|Optimus Prime helmet from 2007]], is a detailed helmet designed to... uhh... change your voice. Oh! And to make your head look like a highly detailed, and movie accurate replicate of Bumblebee. The helmet is nearly fully enclosed around the head, unlike the Prime helmet, and is adjustable so it can be sized to fit adults and children. The helmet is really, really yellow.

:The helmet features three different buttons, the ''voice mixer'', ''battle phrases'' and ''conversion sounds'' buttons.

:The ''voice mixer'' button makes the helmet modulate your voice and play wicked beats at the same time so you can get down with your bad self. The ''battle phrases'' are meant to sound like random radio mixing, but really sound like a couple of guys in a studio yelling at a microphone with silly voices. Enjoy fun phrases like, "You are no match for my new kung fu!" in a delightfully bad Chop Socky voice! However, there are at least a few radio voice clips from the actual movie. The ''conversion sounds'' button plays the transforming sound, or if you hold the button down plays the transforming sound as if it were being remixed live by a DJ on a turntable. Okay, y'know... like with a baby scratch or a backwards loop or something.

:The helmet has three play modes. There's ''demo'', ''on'' and the parents' favourite, ''off''. The helmet comes packaged in the ''demo'' mode with a ''switch retainer'' to keep it there. You'll need to take that sucker off to put him in the all important ''on'' mode. But don't throw it out! It's a really pretty red.

:In order to avoid language barriers, the European version doesn't play battle phrases. However, later releases did feature voiceclips.

*'''Bumblebee Plasma Cannon''' (2009)
: The Plasma Cannon is a stylized version of Bumblebee's fist that converts to a plasma cannon roleplay toy when the barrel is slid forward or the trigger is pulled. When fired, a ring of red lights around the barrel flashes (totally awesome). If the trigger is only pulled half-way, a "charging" sound is made. There is also an Autobot sigil on the side that, when pressed, causes sound effects to be heard. These include conversion noises, a revving engine, and clips from [[Stan Bush]]'s "[[The Touch]]" (also awesome, but only in the "Try Me" setting, which is not quite as awesome).

*'''Bumblebee''' (2009)
**''Series:'' '''Radio Control'''

: Radio Control Bumblebee is, as you might have guessed, an remote-control car (depicting his Concept Camaro form). Like the Mini-Vehicles, he does not transform, although his dual-joystick controller is shaped like his robot mode. Batteries (of Hasbro's own [[Powrfuel]] brand) were included for the controller, but not for the car.

*'''Bumblebee''' (2010)
**''Series:'' '''Lights and Sounds'''

: "Lights and Sounds" Bumblebee is a cutesified car with flashing headlights and playing sounds, and like the Mini-Vehicles, features a sculpted robot mode on its underside. The sounds include racing sounds and various phrases in Bumblebee's radio-mashup manner of speaking, and play either when you press the Autobot insignia on his hood or zoom him around on his wheels.

*'''Change-Up Bumblebee''' (2009)
:This [[Burger King]] toy is a representation of Bumblebee's concept Camaro vehicle form; though Bumblebee's four wheels are molded in, he has three extra wheels underneath to provide the ability to roll out. Pressing a button on his roof will play a sound clip of the [[Transformation#The_noise|G1 transformation sound effect]] and a small projectile will be launched from his front grill. The projectile has a sticker showing his robot mode on it. Flicking a switch on Bumblebee's underside will silence the sound chip, so the button will only launch the projectile.

The package was available for Camaro LT and SS models.

However, inspection of the the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) would reveal if the Camaro was a true Transformers Special Edition or an after-market clone.

==Notes==
[[Image:ROTF Legends Bumblebee HTS.jpg|thumb|200px|Are you calling me yellow? ... wait.]]
* A weapon considered for Bumblebee was a pair of arm-mounted electrical [[Stinger (weapon)|stingers]]. The Bumblebee Camaro '09 toy's blade weapon might have been influenced by this early concept.
*Stock photos of the ''Revenge of the Fallen'' Legends-class Bumblebee toy show it in a much brighter shade of yellow plastic than it was released as. The reason for this change is unknown.

Completist

2011-04-03T23:18:25Z

Awa64: It absolutely has to be this.

A '''completist''' is a fan who collects a complete set in some form. Some completists attempt to have a full set of [[Generation 1 (toyline)|Generation 1]] or ''[[Beast Wars (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' figures, while others simply collect all versions of a single character (such as [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] or [[Hot Shot (Armada)|Hot Shot]]) or a specific subgroup or subline.

Exactly what makes up a "full set" varies from fan to fan; some might settle for a single loose version of each individual character, while others might want complete, boxed versions, while others collect packaging [[variant]]s or accessory variants.

[[Image:PCC-toy Searchlight.jpg|right|thumb|400px|Please mind my deadly arm-mounted rotors while I'm pulling you to safety.]]

'''Searchlight''' is renowned for his matchless search-and-rescue abilities. When he's teamed up with his [[Mini-Con]], [[Backwind]], the amount of time that he operates at full effectiveness increases dramatically, making him an invaluable asset to any rescue mission.

**''Accessories'': 3-blade and 4-blade rotors

: Part of the first wave of ''Power Core Combiners'' Commander Class figures, Searchlight is a Scout-size twin-rescue helicopter who transforms into a robot. Searchlight can swap between his normal head and a larger head so that he can also serve as a torso for ''Power Core Combiner'' drone-limbs. His chestplate has a flip-up Mini-Con [[Powerlinx]] peg that allows him to use any Mini-Con as chest armor, though the nominal choice is his pack-in partner [[Backwind]]. Searchlight's left elbow is misassembled, universally being installed backwards (the angled part should face forward to put it in exact position for helicopter mode). Fortunately, this doesn't really affect much of anything and is also pretty easily fixed if one feels so compelled.

: This mold will also be used to make [[Windburn]].

Hasbro Q&A/October 2009: Question submission

2009-10-01T02:52:35Z

Awa64:

Transformers Wiki participates in [[Hasbro]]'s roughly-every-other-month [[Hasbro Q&A|Question & Answer]] session. Our site will be allowed to submit '''three''' questions to Hasbro's Transformers team for answering. If you're a registered user at our site, please add your question below!

Keep in mind that Hasbro is not likely to tell us about future product they are not ready to reveal, so keep those sorts of questions to a minimum. Please be as thoughtful about your question as possible! We will similarly reject questions like, "Hasbro, why do you suck so much?" The better and more useful the question, the more likely the admins will choose it to be one of the three submitted. We also reserve the right to edit your question for clarity if need be.

Each registered user can ask '''one''' question at this time. Please bullet and sign your question. The deadline for your questions is the evening of '''TBA''', and answers will be sent back on '''TBA'''. If you're a registered member and for some reason you can't edit this page, ask your question on the [[Talk:Hasbro Q&A/October 2009: Question submission|discussion page]], then I or [[User:Monzo|Monzo]] will move it here.

*<strike>Will we see a Human Alliance Optimus Prime/Tommy Kennedy?</strike> --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 09:24, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

*What was the reasoning behind making Universe/ROTF Blast Off a tank? Was this intentional, or just a mistake that wasn't noticed early enough? --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 09:34, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

*What are the chances that Transformers 3 will end with Bob Newhart waking up to realize that the whole Movieverse was nothing more than a dream? --[[User:Kilby|Kilby]] 09:38, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

* ''Beast Wars'' Ultra Transmetal II [[Tigerhawk]] has four wheels on his wing assembly that were intended for a third mode that was dropped at some point in development and replaced with an attack mode. What was this mode supposed to be, and can the released toy convert into it? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 09:47, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

* Based on past releases, it seems to be possible to repair older molds to restore detail lost with repeated use. Specifically, the G1 Jazz mold appears to have had its face detail corrected between the 2003 U.S. reissue and the 2004 release of the mold as Ricochet. Are there limits to how much damage can be repaired, or is it just a matter of whether it's economically feasible to repair a mold? [[User:Hooper X|Hooper_X]] 10:30, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

* We now know that the voise of the Universe cartoon Optimus Prime is Ron Hayden, but who are the Voises of Megatron, Cyclonus and Bumblebee in the episode "Fight for Energon"? Are there also more episodes planed now the Universe line ended?--[[User:Sunjumper|Sunjumper]] 10:59, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

*The concept of relatives is a little strange in a species that doesn't reproduce by human methods. As such, what is the basis of the many established familial relationships among Transformers? How do things like Sideswipe and Sunstreaker being brothers, ''Shattered Glass'' Crasher and Blurr being cousins, some Transformers having parents or children, etc. work exactly? --[[User:Jeysie|Jeysie]] 22:47, 30 September 2009 (EDT)

==Technical details==
{{stub}}

==Short synopsis==
[[Image:ROTFteaserposter.jpg|right|250px|thumb|For dry, red eyes, the difference is clear: Clear Eyes.]]

The Autobots have found a home in "NEST", a secret military unit created to seek out and eliminate the remaining Decepticons. All is not well, however. Unbeknownst to them, Soundwave is in orbit, coordinating the Decepticon counterstrike. After Ravage steals the Allspark shard from NEST, a team of Constructicons and The Doctor journey to the bottom of the ocean and use it revive Megatron. The Decepticon leader journeys to the crashed Nemesis, rebukes Starscream, and meets with his master, The Fallen.

The Fallen explains that he had constructed a Solar Harvester on Earth, in violation of the Primes' code to never harm an inhabited planet. The Primes turned on him, banished and imprisoned him. However the Harvester still stands, and only one Prime remains. If Megatron destroys Optimus Prime, The Fallen will be freed to activate the Harvester, which will kill off the humans and provide the Decepticons with enough energon to raise an army. Megatron eagerly agrees, and returns to Earth with a vengeance.

It transpires that the location of the Harvester is hidden within Sam Witwicky, who absorbed the knowledge from another Allspark fragment. The Decepticons begin an all-out war across the Earth as they hunt down the human, and the Autobots and NEST are blamed for the ensuing carnage. Witwicky goes to ground, and must turn to unlikely allies in the race to find a solution. Ultimately, the last of the Primes defeats The Fallen, destroys the Harvester, and proves the Transformers' greatest power is found in their unexpectedly-ancient alliance with the humans.

==Prequel material==
===Titan Magazines ''Transformers'' movie comics===
While the Decepticons were disgusted with the pro-Autobot propaganda of Bay's first documentary {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 13|#13's Star Screams}}, they're quite optimistic about the second film. [[Starscream (Movie)|Starscream]] has taken a strong interest in it, going to the trouble of personally convincing [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] to be in the film {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 15|15's Star Screams}}.

The Decepticons promise this new documentary will show a glorious Decepticon victory {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 10|#10's Star Screams}} - whether it's in the script or not. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 18|#18's Star Screams}}

Shockingly, even ''they'' are under a non-disclosure agreement regarding the script; Starscream fearfully refers to a greater power keeping him quiet. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 22|#22's Star Screams}} Talking about it could even undermine the Decepticon war effort! {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 23|#23's Star Screams}}

In the same week the film came out, the Decepticons suddenly became unhappy with it and the detente period ended. Bay, Kurtzman, and Orci are once again marked for extermination for their propaganda films. {{storylink|Transformers Comic issue 2.1|#1's Law and Disorder}}

In the week leading up to the United States release, while the film had been released in Japan and the United Kingdom, ''Revenge of the Fallen'' was ranking 38% fresh on [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/transformers_revenge_of_the_fallen/ Rotten Tomatoes.com]. As American reviews were added into the ranking on June 24, the movie's freshness slipped slowly to 22%. RottenTomatoes.com's consensus was that "''Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen'' is a noisy, underplotted, and overlong special effects extravaganza that lacks a human touch." Roger Ebert, who gave the movie one star, remarked that "if you want to save yourself the ticket price, go into the kitchen, cue up a male choir singing the music of hell, and get a kid to start banging pots and pans together." <ref>[http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20090623/REVIEWS/906239997 Roger Ebert's ''Revenge of the Fallen'' review] on RogerEbert.com</ref> Todd Gilchrist of Cinematical.com said Michael Bay "has exceeded even the possibilities of sequel-driven 'moreness,' combining his own muscular, high-gloss sensibility with the conventions of blockbusters past, present, and probably future to create a monolithic action masterpiece that feels destined to be the biggest movie of all time." <ref>[http://www.cinematical.com/2009/06/22/review-transformers-revenge-of-the-fallen/ Review: Transformers Revenge of the Fallen] on Cinematical.com</ref> Michael Phillips from the Chicago Tribune said "the first, comparatively lucid ''Transformers'' was a headache, but I sort of enjoyed it....''Revenge of the Fallen'' is more like listening to rocks in a clothes dryer for 2½ hours." <ref>[http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/movies/chi-tc-mov-transformers-0623-0624jun23,0,7350387.story 'Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen' stars Shia LaBeouf, Megan Fox, Josh Duhamel] on chicagotribune.com </ref> Roger Ebert went back for more in a second article, declaring not only that ''Revenge of the Fallen'' was awful, but that it'd [[Ruined FOREVER|ruined action films FOREVER]]. <ref>[http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2009/06/the_fall_of_the_revengers.html "The Fall of the Revengers"] on suntimes.com</ref>

Despite the overwhelmingly negative reviews, ''Revenge of the Fallen'' poised itself quickly as a blockbuster maelstrom. It grossed $16 million in its opening midnight showings alone, an all-time record for Wednesday openings and a second-best for openings on any day of the week behind ''The Dark Knight''. After the full Wednesday was over, ''Revenge of the Fallen'' had grossed $55 million in domestic ticket sales, surpassing the previous Wednesday release record, held by ''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'', by over $10 million. <ref> [http://www.mtv.com/movies/news/articles/1614673/story.jhtml 'Transformers: Revenge Of The Fallen' Breaks Wednesday Box-Office Record] on MTV.com</ref>

==Trivia==
*The official title of the film is ''Revenge of the Fallen'' (with a lower-case "t" in "the") even though it is apparently referring to [[The Fallen]] (with a capital "T" in "The").
*Leo's room features posters for [[Wikipedia:Naruto|Naruto]], [[Wikipedia:Cloverfield|Cloverfield]], and [[Wikipedia:Bad Boys 2|Bad Boys 2]].
*During the scenes set in and around the deli in NYC, posters for the bands [[Wikipedia:Catch 22 (band)|Catch Twenty-Two]] and [[wikipedia:Voodoo Glow Skulls|Voodoo Glow Skulls]] are prominently featured.
*[[Frank Welker]] dubbed [[Soundwave (ROTF)|Soundwave]] not only in English but also in Italian, as a result, in the Italian edition of the movie Soundwave speaks with a strange, foreign accent.

==Transformers references==
* The whole concept of "Transformers disguised as a human" used for [[Alice]] is inspired by the [[Pretender]]s. Roberto Orci even used the term "Pretender" during an interview before the movie release. However, a Transformer with an "organic" alt-mode instead of an external shell is a concept that reminds more of the Beast Era. Put the two together and you get [[Sari Sumdac]].

==Development details==

* In an interview with BANG! Showbiz, Shia LeBouf stated that the injuries he suffered in his recent vehicular collision were written into the script and did not adversely affect the filming schedule.<ref name="TheList2008">[http://www.list.co.uk/article/10788-shia-labeoufs-transformers-hand/ The List 1 August 2008]</ref>
* Also on January 29, 2009, Simon Furman commented on MTV Movie Blog about how the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] wouldn't fit very well into the movie's universe, and that he is glad they were dropped from the cast very early in development.<ref>[http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2009/01/29/no-dinobots-in-transformers-2-revenge-of-the-fallen-original-film-consultant-explains-why/ MTV Movie Blog interview with Simon Furman, January 29, 2009.]</ref>

* In an interview with Sci Fi Wire on March 31st, Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman said they had looked through the comics and cartoons for the "most elemental bad guy" that "jumped off the material" and found that in the Fallen. They also stated that due to production necessities (Hasbro and Bay needing characters for scenes and design to begin as soon as possible) and the 2008-2009 Writers Strike, some characters were in their initial treatment while others were designed specifically for the movie production, and that due to the overall numbers of robots, the audience would not get to know all of the Transformers closely. Indeed, Orci and Kurtzman referred to some characters via descriptors such "Volt" (Jolt) and "Wheelbot" (Demolishor). They also confirmed that Nimoy was open to playing the Fallen if the role was offered, and that they were in the middle of hashing it out with Frank Welker over a role in the movie, but the final decision was down to Bay.<ref name="scifiwireMarch2009">[http://scifiwire.com/2009/03/orci-kurtzman-reveal-tran.php SciFi Wire March 2009 interview with Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman]</ref>
* On the MTV Movies blog, Michael Bay reported that they were still doing for the voices for the film, and that he was (jokingly) nervous of asking his relative Leonard Nimoy if he wanted to voice The Fallen in the movie for fear of offending him with the relatively low pay allotted to voice actors.<ref>[http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2009/04/21/michael-bay-afraid-to-offend-leonard-nimoy-with-transformers-family-reunion-offer/ ''Michael Bay Afraid To Offend Leonard Nimoy With ‘Transformers’ Family Reunion Offer'', MTV.com Movies blog, April 21, 2009]</ref>
* In a June 22nd article in Forbes (released online on June 4th), Michael Bay talked about his philosphy in movie-making, his demand of part-ownership of movies he makes, and the revelation that he receives an 8% cut of all toy sales from the ''Transformers'' movies.<ref>[http://www.forbes.com/forbes/2009/0622/celebrity-09-transformers-michael-bay-making-movies-enemies-money.html Michael Bay article on Forbes.com June 4, 2009]</ref>

===Disinformation===
{{cleanup|June 25, 2009}}
* Michael Bay has claimed that the studio is putting out deliberate misinformation, to obscure real leaks.<ref>[http://io9.com/382919/michael-bay-plays-internet-punkd Michael Bay Plays Internet Punk'd]</ref> (Like our jobs weren't hard enough.)
* During San Diego Comic-Con 2008, in an interview on July 25th, [[Simon Furman]] claimed that the film would feature a character called [[The Fallen]], which was a character they created for [[Dreamwave Productions|Dreamwave]]'s ''[[The War Within: The Dark Ages]]''<ref>[http://www.comicbookresources.com/?page=article&id=17412 Simon Furman confirms The Fallen is a character in an interview with Comic Book Resources]</ref> Three days later, [[IDW Publishing]] writer [[Chris Mowry]] corroborated the claim in an interview with MTV Splash Page, calling "The Fallen" the main villain of ''Revenge'' ([[Arcee (Movie)|Arcee]] was also confirmed in the same interview, but the reference to her was mysteriously removed shortly after publication). <ref>[http://splashpage.mtv.com/2008/07/28/exclusive-transformers-2-prequel-comic-gives-inside-scoop-on-2009-movie/ MTV Splash Page interviews Chris Mowry]</ref> Less than a week after this, however, Michael Bay reiterated that everything leaked thus far is part of their misinformation campaign and that only a handful of people involved with the production of ''Revenge'' have seen the script, contradicting IDW's interviews where their representatives confirm that they have the script. Additionally, Bay claimed the only truth about the film was Sam going to college.<ref>[http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=44729&postcount=2 A post made by Michael Bay on his forum]</ref> Curiously, on August 5th 2008, after a fan posted on Michael Bay's forum pointing out the contradiction, all references to the Fallen were removed from the aforementioned interviews, as well as any references to IDW Publishing having the script.
* ''Empire'' magazine's February 2009 issue features information on the role of the Egyptian Pyramids in the Movieverse's backstory. Michael Bay also confirmed The Fallen and denied Megatron would be resurrected (this later turned out to be untrue). Ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics resembling helicopters will be revealed to be depictions of Transformers who visited Earth before the pyramids were built.<ref name="EmpireFeb2009">''Empire'' article entitled "20 to watch in 2009", written by Nick de Semelyn, dated February 2009, pages 68 and 69, issue 236</ref>
* After a short and poorly excuted "misinformation campaign" on the part of Michael Bay, Paramount and their licensees where they claimed that Megatron was not in the movie despite all ''officially released'' evidence to the contrary (including Megatron's brief appearance in the February 1 Superbowl tv spot and the February teaser trailer), Roberto Orci confirmed that Megatron does indeed return.<ref name="Megatron returns">[http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/transformers-movie-discussion/180451-welcome-mr-roberto-orci-you-may-ask-him-questions-211.html#post3333713 Roberto Orci confirms Megatron's return on TFW2005.com - February 22, 2009]</ref>
* On March 6, due to the reports of Weaving's return, Michael Bay finally admitted Megatron was back, but claimed that Megatron would only appear briefly in a flashback to the past, despite the fact Megatron can be seen pinning Sam Witwicky to the ground in ''Revenge's'' tv spot and teaser trailer. One can assume that the director was trying to salvage some form of audience surprise in seeing Megatron return in the movie. In other news of a presumably legitimate kind, Bay said that the movie would go into the distant past and explain the history of the [[Prime]]s.<ref>[http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=66825&postcount=4 Michael Bay on his forum - March 6, 2009]</ref>

===''Transformers'' sequel and the 2007-2008 Writers Strike===
In late 2007, during preproduction for then-untitled ''Transformers'' sequel, the [[wikipedia:2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike|Writers Guild of America went on strike]]. At the time, Roberto Orci stated that the strike could likely delay ''Transformers 2's'' release. However, Michael Bay refuted this, claiming the movie was still on schedule.<ref>[http://www.shootfortheedit.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6200#post6200 Robert Orci discusses the strike & TF2]</ref> The reason behind Bay's confidence was discovered by Orci shortly after the strike ended. The director had apparently taken the outline the writers had handed in the night before the strike, and began pre-production based on it. <ref>[http://www.donmurphy.net/board/showthread.php?t=24357&page=4 Don Murphy message board - Orci on the aftermath of the strike]</ref>

==Errors==
*Bumblebee picks up Sam at a frat party in the evening. He then takes him to a graveyard where it's daytime.
*Wheelie disappeared inexplicably in the third act. What the hell, man?
**Similarly Jetfire vanishes around the same time Wheelie does. But unlike Wheelie, he actually comes back.
*Mudflap and Skids are not seen again after facing off against Devastator.
*When Jetfire is activated at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum (actually the [[Wikipedia:Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center|Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center]], an annex of the Smithsonian) in Washington, he leaves the exhibition center and exits into the desert location of the [[Wikipedia:309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group|309th Aerospace Maintenance and Regeneration Group (aka The Boneyard)]], which is in Tuscon, Arizona. When Jetfire breaks out of the building, we can see a composited image of the Boneyard's rows of planes, so it's arguable that in this universe the middle of Washington DC happens to be a desert full of old planes, and no buildings and uh... heh heh. Given that this and the Transformers are the ''only'' changes between this universe and ours, that's a stretch.

Talk:Meltdown (Animated)

2008-06-01T05:31:49Z

Awa64: /* Merge */

Where was it confirmed that pimp-suit guy was Prometheus Black?

(Should the rest of this have the "Spoiler" tag? It was an official info release. Anyway).

The episode summaries on CartoonNetwork.com say that's the alter-ego of [[Meltdown (Animated)|Meltdown]], and the Hasbro reps last year were pretty clear that "pimp guy" and "acid guy" are separate characters. Perhaps the pimp image we saw actually goes with this "Headmaster"? --[[User:Thylacine 2000|Thylacine 2000]] 18:45, 10 December 2007 (UTC)

==Merge==
Personally, I think the page should stay where it is, and just have the disambigs from "Meltdown" come to here. If deemed neccessary, "Meltdown (Animated)" can be a categorized redirect page. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 16:03, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
:Now that most of us have seen the episode, is this the stance we should maintain? Whenever Prometheus shows up again, I figure it'll be as Meltdown... and we've got Nanosec under his villain name, too, so. Thoughts? --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 07:38, 28 January 2008 (UTC)
::Well, the "It's Prometheus Black!" "No, it's MELTDOWN!" exchange between Fanzone and Meltdown/Black seems to back up this assertion... thoughts? --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 00:24, 16 March 2008 (UTC)
:::As long as Professor Princess is staying Professor Princess and not Penny Princess, Ph.D., this should probably be at Meltdown.[[User:Awa64|Awa64]] 05:31, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

==cyborg==

Is that the best term to use here? A cyborg is generally an organic creature that got augmented with technology(same as getting a prosthetic basically). There's a definete seperation. BA seems to be a hybrid on the genetic/molecular/DNA/CNA/whatever level.[[User:GWolfv2]]

==Image update==

You know, "Total Meltdown" aired quite a while ago. Perhaps we should update the image of Prometheus's human self to something a little less, er...low-res? --[[User:Cyberlink420|Cyberlink420]] 16:59, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

== Black Friday ==

This section of the article should be removed right? Isnt the spoiler policy soilers for the newest USA episode only? Should it be removed?[[User:Proconix|Proconix]] 17:16, 18 May 2008 (UTC)Proconix<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>

BotCon 2008

2008-05-04T18:36:50Z

Awa64: /* Hasbro employees */

[[Image:Botcon08logo.jpg|right|thumb|Everything you thought you knew will be purple.]]
'''[[BotCon]] 2008''' was the Official [[Transformers]] Convention in 2008, run by [[Fun Publications]]. It was held in Cincinnati, Ohio, from April 24 to 27.

==Run-up==
Hype for the convention began on the [http://www.botcon.com BotCon website] on November 27, 2007, when the entire page was replaced by a giant graphic of a mysterious trio of ominous-looking Autobots, a new logo featuring a purple BotCon logo with a matching purple Autobot symbol, and a spooky video clip featuring a backwards Transformers theme. The video clip also claimed that "this spring ... at BotCon 2008 ... everything you thought you knew ... will be ... shattered." Fans soon deduced that the convention toy set would have a "mirror universe" theme of evil Autobots.

On November 28, the page was updated with the location, date, and venue.

On January 31, 2008, registration forms went up, and on February 29, the "Shattered Glass" set was announced to be sold out, for both Primus and Iacon packages. On April 4, the free [[Ricochet (Shattered Glass)|Ricochet]] attendee figure was announced to be sold out.

==Venue==
BotCon 2008 was held at the Duke Energy Center.

==Merchandise==
===Convention-exclusive toys===
* '''Convention box set''' - "[[Shattered Glass]]," a set of five toys was only available to those who registered for either the 'Primus Package' or the non-attendee 'Iacon Package.' The set also included a badge, the convention comic, bio cards, and for the first 100 registrants, an exclusive pin. This set sold out (both boxed and bagged versions) well in advance of the convention, after which the [[BotCon 2005]] ''[[Descent into Evil]]'' set was provided as an alternative.

BotCon 2008

2008-05-04T18:33:44Z

Awa64: /* Hasbro employees */

[[Image:Botcon08logo.jpg|right|thumb|Everything you thought you knew will be purple.]]
'''[[BotCon]] 2008''' was the Official [[Transformers]] Convention in 2008, run by [[Fun Publications]]. It was held in Cincinnati, Ohio, from April 24 to 27.

==Run-up==
Hype for the convention began on the [http://www.botcon.com BotCon website] on November 27, 2007, when the entire page was replaced by a giant graphic of a mysterious trio of ominous-looking Autobots, a new logo featuring a purple BotCon logo with a matching purple Autobot symbol, and a spooky video clip featuring a backwards Transformers theme. The video clip also claimed that "this spring ... at BotCon 2008 ... everything you thought you knew ... will be ... shattered." Fans soon deduced that the convention toy set would have a "mirror universe" theme of evil Autobots.

On November 28, the page was updated with the location, date, and venue.

On January 31, 2008, registration forms went up, and on February 29, the "Shattered Glass" set was announced to be sold out, for both Primus and Iacon packages. On April 4, the free [[Ricochet (Shattered Glass)|Ricochet]] attendee figure was announced to be sold out.

==Venue==
BotCon 2008 was held at the Duke Energy Center.

==Merchandise==

The set also included a badge, the convention comic, bio cards, and for the first 100 registrants, an exclusive pin. This set sold out (both boxed and bagged versions) well in advance of the convention, after which the [[BotCon 2005]] ''[[Descent into Evil]]'' set was provided as an alternative.

Garbage In, Garbage Out

2008-05-03T22:32:05Z

Awa64: /* Real-world references */ Wyatt Toys

[[Image:Wreck-Gar-Ani.jpg|thumb|right|300px|The [[Wikipedia:Raging Bender|Gender Bender]]!]]

{{episodenav|animated|20|season=2|prev=Mission Accomplished|next=Velocity}}

'''AllSpark energy turns a junk pile into a sentient robot who tries to help the Autobots, but ends up doing more harm than good.'''

==Summary==
Garbage is piling up all over [[Detroit]], as the trash-bots are malfunctioning and [[Sumdac Systems]] CEO Porter C. Powell refuses to repair them until the city and he can come to an agreement on payment. In Powell's office, a technician demonstrates a new form of the nanobots that [[Transform and Roll Out|caused big problems a while back]], designed this time to break garbage down to its component molecules, quickly and cheaply solving the garbage problem (while allowing Powell to charge the city a hefty fee).

Elsewhere, the [[Autobot]]s are trying to patch up their still-damaged reputation by helping pile garbage into scows. Ratchet ends up getting into a shouting match with an old man whose car ended up under a garbage mound, resulting in the car being dumped in the river and the two old grouches almost coming to blows. Captain Fanzone arrives to break up the scene and remarks that Ratchet needs to work on his "people skills". Prime agrees and assigns Bumblebee and Sari to try and help out Ratchet while they work more on the garbage problem. Ratchet is not happy with this.

Just before the Autobots depart, though, [[Sari Sumdac's key|Sari's key]] glows, but she quickly disregards this...and misses the emergence of a junk-robot from the scow, brought to life by an [[AllSpark (Animated)|AllSpark]] shard. The confused machine tries to figure out his identity using the scraps around him, but is unsatisfied with the results. Spying a passing blimp with a sign for the Detroit police department with the slogan "We're Here to Help", the robot happily goes about trying to find some police for some help with his identity.

==Quotes==

''[Sari, Spike, and a very pregnant Carly are almost crushed by an axle carelessly discarded by Ratchet]''<br>
"Uh, I don't know much about these things, lady, but I think you're supposed to breathe or something."
:{{m-}}'''Sari''' the midwife.

"I am Wreck-Gar, and I ''dare'' to be stupid!"
:{{m-}}'''Wreck-Gar'''. Yes, but does he count his chickens before they hatch?

==Other notes==
* This episode was first shown on Friday, April 25th, at [[BotCon 2008]]. The version aired still had the time-code running in the top-left corner.

===Continuity errors===
*When removing trash into a boat, Optimus transforms and suddenly his trailer evaporated, together with all the trash on it.
*Why don't Sari or Ratchet react to the Allspark Key when it starts to glow, indicating the presence of Allspark energy?

===Transformers references===
[[Image:Beemeatcycle.jpg|right|thumb|200px|Most fanwanky episode ever?]]
* Wreck-Gar interprets Lugnut's incoming rocket punch as an invitation to a high-five, and he happily delivers the [[universal greeting]].

* Wreck-Gar's shifting allegiance and red optics as he faces down Ratchet on the garbage scow appear to be callbacks to the [[Wreck-Gar (G1)|original Wreck-Gar]], who appeared to be an enemy to the Autobots at first, complete with red optics.

* The ''Animated'' incarnations of Spike and Carly, who made a cameo in [[Transform and Roll Out!|the pilot episode]], re-appear with speaking lines and even get their names called out.

* The motorcycle altmode of G1 Wreck-Gar can be spotted amongst the garbage that Wreck-Gar throws at Bumblebee.

===Real-world references===
* Wreck-Gar's "I ''dare'' to be stupid!" is, of course, a reference to one of [["Weird Al" Yankovic]]'s most well-known songs, "Dare to be Stupid", a Devo "style parody" that appeared on the soundtrack to [[The Transformers: The Movie|the original animated movie]] in the scene with the original Wreck-Gar.
* While driving Spike and Carly to the hospital, Ratchet drives past a toy store whose sign reads "Wyatt Toys." This is most likely a reference to [[Derrick Wyatt]], art director on the show.

===Miscellaneous trivia===
* Even Megatron gets annoyed from Lugnut's constant worshiping. [[Inferno (BW)|Sound familiar]]?

* Aside from Wreck-Gar, Weird Al also voiced the Sumdac Systems technician who explains the new version of the nanobots to Porter C. Powell.

Inferno (G1)

2008-05-02T01:35:30Z

Awa64: /* Generation 2 */

{{disambig3|Inferno}}

:''Inferno is an [[Autobot]] in the [[Generation 1]] [[continuity family]].''

[[Image:G1Inferno_collectionbox1.jpg|right|thumb|300px|Will probably start fires just to put them out.]]

'''Inferno''' is one gung-ho robot, ready and willing to roll out into the thick of any action at the drop of a hat. If the mission is search and rescue he's one of the best bots to have around, but he's even happier when called on to fight. Nothing gets Inferno's circuits going like a one-on-one with a few Decepticon trouble makers. During his down time he can generally be found hanging out with [[Red Alert (G1)|Red Alert]] and trying his best to keep Red out of trouble.

==Fiction==
===Cartoon continuity===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Walker Edmiston]] (US), [[Takurō Kitagawa]] (Japan)

[[Image:InsecticonSyndrome_Inferno_fires.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Flashlights of Doom!]]

Inferno appeared without explanation one day as [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] explained their mission to stop the [[Insecticon (G1)|Insecticons]] from attacking the [[Nova Power Plant]]. He was the first to roll out on Prime's orders. During the battle at the power plant, the gun-slinging fire fighter stood by [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz]] and shot down [[Laserbeak (G1)|Laserbeak]] before they rushed off to to rescue the human pilots of a downed helicopter. After the super-powered Insecticons crushed Wheeljack and electrocuted Ironhide, Inferno sprayed fire-retardant foam on Ironhide and loaded him into Prime's trailer as the Autobots retreated. Inferno later participated in the Autobot counter attack at [[Iron Mountain]] where he and the other Autobots were buried under tons of rock. [[Hound (G1)|Hound]] was heard to complain about Inferno ending up on his head whilst they were trapped. {{Storylink|The Insecticon Syndrome}}

[[Image:DinobotIsland_Pt2_InfernospraysCowboys.jpg|thumb|right|150px|''Bonanza'' got a little weird near the end of the series]]

When the [[Dinobot (G1)|Dinobots]] accidently set fire to [[Ark|Autobot headquarters]], Inferno helped Red Alert douse the flames. {{Storylink|Dinobot Island, Part 1}} Later, Inferno did his part to preserve the sanctity of the timestream by spraying cowboys with fire retardant foam. Eh...you had to be there. {{Storylink|Dinobot Island, Part 2}}

[[Image:AutoBerserk_Inferno_RedAlert_friendship.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Why can't I quit you?]]

Later, Inferno was ordered to guard over Red Alert as the Autobots repelled an attack by the Decepticons on the [[Negavator]] super weapon's bunker. Inferno, itching for a fight, abandoned Red Alert despite his paranoid friend's repeated requests for him to stay. Inferno rescued Red Alert when his friend was buried under rubble which had the unfortunate side-effect of damaging Red Alert's logic circuits to the point of overload. Inferno later proved his friendship to Red when he saved Red Alert from himself when the latter, in a state of paranoia, allied himself with [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] and the Decepticons. {{Storylink|Auto Berserk}}

Inferno was reunited with his old gal [[Firestar]] when he, [[Ironhide (G1)|Ironhide]] and [[Powerglide]] went to help Optimus Prime rescue [[Elita One (G1)|Elita One]]. {{storylink|The Search for Alpha Trion}}

{{charstubfiction}}

{{-}}

====Transformers: The Headmasters (Japan only)====

Inferno appeared in a non-speaking role alongside [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]], [[Jazz (G1)|Jazz]], and [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]]. {{Storylink|A Dream is Born, Double Prime}}

===Marvel Comics continuity===
====Generation 1====
{{noteukonly}}

''Inferno joined [[Sandstorm (Autobot)|Sandstorm]] and [[Broadside (G1)|Broadside]] as part of a monitoring unit stationed on Earth to keep watch for the threat of super-Decepticon, [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]]. Shortly after they arrived, the unit chased off the unrelated threat of a [[Furnacia]]n [[Firebug]], who had arrived on Earth and begun starting fires in human settlements. They exiled it to Mercury in a message pod. {{Storylink|Firebug!}}''

''When Galvatron later resurfaced, the reconnaissance team sent a message to Cybertron and joined up with the [[Wrecker]]s and Decepticon [[Mayhem Attack Squad]] in confronting the time traveler. Unfortunately Galvatron had help (as if he needed it) in the form of [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron]]. The Wreckers and Mayhems were torn to shreds, suffering greater than 50% losses. {{Storylink|Time Wars}} Inferno was one of the few survivors who limped away from the final battle, cut off from any support from Cybertron. The remaining members of the Wreckers and Mayhems pooled resources as the [[Survivors]], living on Earth separately from the planet's active Cybertronian armies. {{Storylink|Survivors!}}''

Inferno was present when [[Prowl (G1)|Prowl]] and Grimlock were loading up their shuttles to go chase after [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]] and his gang of less-than-merry men. {{Storylink|A Savage Circle}} He was later killed on the planet [[Klo]] and then reactivated by the power of the [[Last Autobot]]. {{Storylink|End of the Road! (Marvel US comic)|End of the Road}}

In an alternate timeline, Inferno was one of seven remaining Autobots on Earth in the year 2009, fighting against Decepticon domination of the American continents. He survived the desperate attempt to prevent a nuclear attack by the rest of the world, and was last seen fighting against greater odds heroically, for all our freedoms. (He probably died immediately after that panel.) {{storylink|Rhythms of Darkness}}

{{note|Inferno's US and UK timelines are more difficult to reconcile than most characters, primarily because of how the Survivors story blends from the main UK continuity (Time Wars) straight into the splinter continuity (Earthforce). He shows up totally unannounced on Cybertron after the war with Unicron, and never speaks.}}

=====Earthforce=====
{{earthforcefiction}}

''After a new squad of Mayhems came to Earth to execute their treacherous former members, the Survivors failed to stop the Decepticon named Bludgeon from killing [[Catilla]]. {{storylink|A Savage Place!}} After [[Carnivac]] ran off on his own to seek vengeance against the Mayhems, Inferno and the remaining Survivors hooked up with [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock]]'s [[Earthforce]] in order to provide the [[Pretender]] some proper back-up. They then chose to stick around with Earthforce full time as an adjunct unit. {{Storylink|Where Wolf?}} Inferno and the Survivors were later seen on the high seas, fighting off [[Starscream (G1)|Starscream]] when he attempted to hijack an oil tanker. {{storylink|Divide and Conquer!}}''

''Later, Inferno was standing guard over the Mayhems they had captured when the Survivors first joined with Earthforce. [[Bludgeon (G1)|Bludgeon]], [[Octopunch]] and [[Stranglehold]] were being model prisoners. Very quiet...too quiet. As Inferno began to get unnerved by the silence, Stranglehold suddenly began pounding away at the floor like a madman, tearing it up while still they all remained totally silent. Not quite sure what else to do, Inferno turned off the energy bars and entered the cell to blast the prisoner with a pacifier ray. As soon as he did, though, Bludgeon's katana shot through his backside, summoned mentally from the storage room by its master's [[Metallikato]] discipline. Inferno blacked out as the three Pretenders casually sauntered out of their cell to freedom. {{storylink|Shut Up!}}''

=====Marvel UK future timelines=====

''In the alternate version of 2008, after Unicron's attack on Cybertron, Inferno and his good friend [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] discovered Unicron's continued existence on the planet [[Junk]], where he had enslaved the [[Junkion]]s into rebuilding his body. Retreating to their ship to make contact with the rest of the Autobots, they ran afoul of the brainwashed [[Death's Head]]. Inferno was badly injured, but with their shuttle under attack by [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] and [[Scourge (G1)|Scourge]] in the skies over Cybertron, he was forced to hurl Smokescreen to safety through the front windscreen, so word of Unicron's survival could reach Rodimus Prime. Inferno's last act was to go out in a blaze of glory, crashing straight into the Decepticon ranks in the battle below. {{storylink|The Legacy of Unicron!}}''

====Generation 2====

Inferno was working with a squad of Autobots trying to stop [[Jhiaxus]]'s [[Cybertronian]]s from committing genocide on planet [[Ethos]]. Most of his team took heavy fire and apparently died, though. Inferno himself was distraught at Smokescreen's death and broke ranks to hit more of the Cybertronians - as a result, he was crushed under a collapsing building the enemy brought down on top of him. {{Storylink|Escalation}}

===Dreamwave Comics continuity===

Inferno and his good buddy [[Smokescreen (G1)|Smokescreen]] joined up with Grimlock's [[Lightning Strike Coalition]] during the time of the Dark Ages. Some millennia later, after the [[Great Shutdown]], Inferno was one of the first Autobots reactivated and brought around to the idea of a unified Cybertronian populace by [[Ultra Magnus (G1)|Ultra Magnus]] and [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]]. Joining Red Alert, [[Hoist (G1)|Hoist]], [[Grapple]], [[Skids]], and [[Perceptor (G1)|Perceptor]], he became a charter member of the Autobot High Council, ruling alongside Shockwave in administrative matters while Ultra Magnus focused on more militant concerns. However, the lack of leadership experience by Inferno and most of his fellow council-beings led to them ceding more and more power to Shockwave over the years. They eventually came to their senses and joined in the insurrection against Shockwave led by [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] and the Ark's crew. {{Storylink|Revelation}}

===IDW Comics continuity===
[[Image:MegsOrigin4_Grapple_Inferno.jpg|thumb|left|150px|Inferno discovers that your face really ''will'' stay that way]]

Inferno was attending to the fire damage and chaos caused by Megatron's opening assault on [[Kaon]] when a pleasure cruiser fell out of the sky on top of him, likely killing the Autobot fire fighter. {{Storylink|Megatron Origin}}

Except he survived. During the following war on Cybertron, he was one of several Autobots [[Blaster]] would have trusted his life with. After Blaster returned to the Autobots after having been lost for millennia, Inferno was among Blaster's friends who took leave from their assignments to see "The Voice". However, after a second attempt on Blaster's life, Inferno was also one of the four Autobots under suspicion of the failed assassination. Fortunately the [[Beachcomber (G1)|real (unwilling) culprit]] was caught, so Inferno and the others were cleared. {{Storylink|Spotlight: Blaster}}

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
[[Image:G1_Inferno_toy.jpg|right|thumb|160px|Then he'll start the fire again.]]
*'''Inferno''' (Autobot, 1985, 2003/2004)
**''Japanese ID number:'' '''C-10'''
**''Accessories:'' "Extinguisher Rifle", 2 fists (left & right), 3 missiles, 2 head nozzles

: Inferno transforms into a Mitsubishi Fuso firetruck. Each of his forearms contains a spring-loaded missile launcher, so he can fire his own fists or silver missiles. He is usually depicted in media has having a missile in place of a hand on his right arm. He is also armed with a small black Extinguisher rifle.

: In 2002, Inferno was re-released as part of [[Takara]]'s [[Transformers Collection]] series. This time he featured [[tampograph]]ed Autobot symbol and blue eyes instead of yellow. These changes carried over to the [[Comemorative Series]] Inferno, Commemorative Series [[Grapple]], and [[Load Hauler]].

: In 2003, he was released by [[Hasbro]] in the Toys "R" Us [[exclusive]] "[[Commemorative Series]]" line.

: This mold was [[redeco]]ed and partially [[retool]]ed to make the [[Targetmaster]] [[Artfire (G1)|Artfire]], and [[Grapple_(G1)|Grapple]].

*'''Inferno with Hydro-Pack''' (Action Master, 1990)
**''Accessories:'' Hydro-Pack, "Magna-Blast Gun"
[[Image:ActionMaster_Inferno.jpg|thumb|left|180px|Inferno's transformation abilities were compensated by a big orange thinhamajig.]]

: A non-transforming action figure with a simplified design, Inferno came with a [[Hydro-Pack]] that could be attached to his back or transformed into a large hand held Laser weapon. He is compatible with all other Action Master weapons and vehicles.
{{-}}

===Generation 2===
*'''Inferno''' (Autobot Hero, 1993)
**''Accessories:'' "Extinguisher Rifle", water cannon, 2 fists (left & right), 2 head nozzles
[[Image:G2_Inferno_toy.jpg|thumb|right|150px|Hows anyone supposed to climb the ladder with this huge thing on my back?]]

: For ''Generation 2'', Inferno's original toy was re-used with virtually no deco changes, adding only the "Autobot" [[tampograph]]. His forearms were retooled to remove the spring-loaded launcher mechanism (the chromed missiles from the original releases were also dropped), but he came with a large red water-shooting cannon that clipped to his ladder. Said cannon rains pain.
{{-}}

===3D Battle-Card Game===
*'''Inferno''' (2007)

: A 36-point "rare" character in the [[3D Battle-Card Game]]'s "Energon Wars" expansion, Inferno "transforms" into a red fire truck. He uses the same parts layout as [[Transformers (2007)|Movie]] [[Bonecrusher (Movie)|Bonecrusher]], albeit with some parts moved around to make him more fire truck-like.

==Trivia==
[[Image:A35.jpg|right|thumb|Inferno moonlights for easy cash.]]

* Inferno's original toy, slightly modified, was [[Knockoff|knocked off]] and used as the titular giant robot in the Korean animated film ''Phoenix King'' (피닉스킹). ''Phoenix King'' was dubbed (horribly) and released in America by Digiview Entertainment as ''[http://www.cyrusfirst.com/guests/digiview/dev/detail.php?p=91 Defenders of Space]'', generally selling for the bargain price of $1.00. Scenes of "Inferno" from this movie were also incorporated into another bargain film distributed by Digiview Entertainment, ''[http://www.cyrusfirst.com/guests/digiview/dev/detail.php?p=201 Space Thunder Kids]''.

* In the late 1990s, a knockoff of ''Generation 2'' Inferno with some yellow parts was sold in discount stores on a card reading "Transformers: Generation 3."

* The earliest pictured version of Action Master Inferno is largely different from the final version, but only upon close examination. The early version errs on the side of the original toy in color and design, while the final more closely follows the design of the animation model. Strangely, the early version has a nearly solid black block of a head (possibly to echo the ladder base in which the original's head was contained), as well as generally wider and chunky proportions.

* Inferno was one of many Transformers to be cut out of [[The Transformers: The Movie]]. His scene was cut but the credit for the character remained.

Transformers Animated (cartoon)

2008-04-30T02:53:13Z

Awa64: /* Trivia */ Good information, badly phrased. Hooray rewrites.

{{Nav-Animated}}

'''''Transformers Animated''''' is a cartoon series which debuted in early 2008, in support of the [[franchise]] of [[Transformers Animated|the same name]].

The cartoon is produced by [[Cartoon Network]], scripted in the United States, with character and background designs by the crews behind shows like ''[[wikipedia:Teen Titans (TV series)|Teen Titans]]'' and ''[[wikipedia:Ben 10|Ben 10]]'', while animation is being provided by Japanese studios [[Mook]], [[The Answer Studio]], and [[Studio 4°C]].

''Animated'' sees several G1 voice actors reprise their old roles ([[Susan Blu]], [[Corey Burton]], [[John Moschitta]], etc.), and is the first Transformers show featuring [[David Kaye]] in which he won't be voicing [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]].

==Series details==
[[Image:TransformersAnimatedPoster.jpg||thumb|250px|left|"When there's trouble you know who to call..."]]
The series eschews the ever-continuing space opera storylines of the past few anime to return to the episodic approach of ''[[Beast Wars (cartoon)|Beast Wars]]''; each episode will be a standalone story, but with an overall story arc that stretches through the whole season. The focus is being put firmly on characterization, dynamic action, and humor.

The episodes center not only on the war between the [[Autobot]]s and the [[Decepticon]]s, but also on the Autobots' interactions with many of [[Detroit]]'s [[human]] supervillain denizens, including a [[Angry Archer|maladjusted marksman]], a [[Nanosec|speedy racer]], and a guy who [[Prometheus Black|looks good in a pimp suit]]. The idea is to present the Decepticons as more of an ongoing background threat instead of having them be repeatedly defeated each episode and look like bumbling fools. Rather, the arrival of a Decepticon in battle is supposed to be a big deal, requiring multiple Autobots working together to stop even a single one. The human villains will give the Autobots "everyday" threats--and no doubt their schemes will turn out to be the result of Decepticon treachery. Note that [[Doctor Arkeville|human]] [[Lord Chumley|adversaries]] [[Circuit Breaker|are]] [[Cobra Commander|not]] [[Abdul Fakkadi|new]] [[Lazarus|in]] ''Transformers'' continuity. However, humans as [[Hydra and Buster|major]] [[Overlord|threats]] is very uncommon.

Season 3 is already in the works, and season 4 is quite possible.

While the series is not a sequel to the [[Transformers (2007)|live-action movie]], they have many thematic elements in common, most notably the central role of the [[AllSpark (Animated)|AllSpark]] and the revelation that all modern technology has been reverse-engineered from the dormant body of [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]]. Hasbro also carried over some design elements from the live-action movie into Animated designs, including not just the aforementioned cube but also [[Ratchet (Animated)|Ratchet]]'s medical readout striped deco, [[Bumblebee (Animated)|Bumblebee]]'s black racing stripe, and [[Megatron (Animated)|Megatron]]'s helmet. These are meant to be "connection points," helping kids who had seen the theatrical film but had no prior Transformers experience ease into understanding the new series.

==Reception==
''Transformers Animated'' debuted January 5, 2008, at 10:30am EST as the number one television show among boys 6-11 in both cable and network television. In addition, the strength of the showing helped lift the ratings of all its neighboring shows in Cartoon Network's "Dynamite Action" scheduling block. <ref>http://www.timewarner.com/corp/newsroom/pr/0,20812,1701434,00.html</ref>

==Trivia==
* ''Transformers: Animated'' reunites Jeff Bennett, Bill Fagerbakke and Cree Summer as regular cast members. Respectively, they have previously voiced [[wikipedia:Manhattan_Clan#Brooklyn|Brooklyn]], [[wikipedia:Manhattan_Clan#Broadway|Broadway]] and Hyena from the [[wikipedia:Gargoyles (TV series)|Gargoyles]] series, three characters not unlike their Transformers counterparts. Another voice actor for Gargoyles, Kath Soucie, has made a guest appearance.
* The series is the first in over a decade to re-establish the classic G1 convention of blue eyes for Autobots and red eyes for Decepticons.
* As well as the aforementioned G1 voice actors, [[Townsend Coleman]] returns to a Transformers series. He voiced [[Rewind]] in the original G1 cartoon.
* It seems like the Autobots like faceplates in this series. (i.e. Optimus, Prowl, Bumblebee, Sentinel Prime.)
* Yes, they have large chins. Shut up about it.
* Despite the insistance of many fans, Gurren Lagann did not influence designs for the show until most of the first season was done because [[Derrick Wyatt]], the show's art director, did not see Gurren Lagaan until that point in the show's development.<ref>https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21975298&postID=8564559979841180115&isPopup=true</ref>
* Much of the show's style is owed to 80s cartoons Mighty Orbots and 2000 AD, as well as general influences from Gainax.<ref>https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=21975298&postID=8564559979841180115&isPopup=true</ref>

===Continuity errors===
*

===Transformers references===
* The [[Headmaster]] concept was originally part of the [[G1]] series & has seen [[Fortress Maximus (RID)|sporadic]] [[Sideways|use]] in [[Omega Supreme (Energon)|other]] [[Overload (Armada)|series]] since.

* Optimus tows a trailer with a [[Optimus Prime (G1)|certain paint job]]. Awesome.

* When Captain Fanzone switches Bumblebee's radio to something he likes, Bumblebee [[Bumblebee (Movie)|switches back]] to the previous radio channel.

* The song that Bumblebee likes is the same song that [[Soundwave (Animated)|Soundwave]] dances to in [[Sound and Fury]].

* [[Daniel Witwicky (Animated)|Daniel Witwicky]] appears again, crying his eyes out because of Bulkhead accidentally breaking a reporter-bot.

* In their endless generosity, the Autobots send an [[B.O.T. (robot)|innocent cobbled together robot]] in to do their explosive, suicidal dirty work.

===Real-world references===
[[Image:Greatestref.jpg|right|thumb|200px|"Bumblebee, have you ever been in a Turkish prison?"]]
* The original Headmaster unit bears a striking resemblance to the Jet Piloter fron ''Mazinger Z''.

* Masterson plays "Rock 'em Sock 'em Robots" with his Headmaster drones.

*When Bulkhead creates an image of the Autobots, he does so with the sound of an early 90s printer.

* In the scene with Bulkhead painting his hand, Bumblebee's pose (one leg behind his head, carrying a baby, in front of an overturned Jeep) is a direct reference to the 1980 film ''Airplane!'', in which the main character is in a mental hospital and is painting a very similar image, with a live model. (Bumblebee is missing the assault rifle and explosion backdrop, however... but he does have one of his stingers deployed, close enough for the first one.)

Cryotek (RID)

2008-03-15T18:28:50Z

Awa64: /* Trivia */

{{disambig2|the ''Robots in Disguise'' toy used in Beast Era fiction|the TransTech counterpart who runs a bar|Cryotek (TransTech)}}

{{picsneeded|Toy}}
:''Cryotek is a [[Predacon]] from the [[Beast Era]] and [[Universe]] series. His toy, however, was released under the [[Robots in Disguise (franchise)|Robots in Disguise]] banner. ''

[[Image:Cryotek.jpg|right|thumb|300px|It's almost as if he's been doing ''too much'' science.]]

'''Cryotek''' is a gangster in [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]]'s dangerous criminal underworld. A supply manager who served the Decepticon general [[Deathsaurus]] as the Great War came to a close, he doublecrossed his boss by leading a team of [[Predacon (BW)|Predacon]] rebels against him, earning him amnesty during the following peace.

Once a brilliant engineer, he turned his talents to crime, and advancing technologies that were outlawed. He developed bodyframes that, though quite powerful and weapon-laden, qualified as legal for construction or research. His own "cryo-tank" form was as powerful as a Predacon could manage without special government clearance. With his bodyguards [[Dirge]], [[Buzzbomb]], and [[Backslash]], Cryotek ran a tight organization that skirted the law, embarrassing the [[Maximal Command Security Force]], who could never dig up any evidence against him. <ref>Much of Cryotek's prehistory comes from his ''[[Theft of the Golden Disk]]'' profile available to [[Transformers Collectors' Club|fan club]] members.</ref>

Ironically, Cryotek's claim to fame would be his protégé, the rogue Predacon who would be called [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]]. Cryotek's greatest ideas would be co-opted by his former student, including technology for [[spark extractor]]s and even his plan for the theft of the [[Golden Disk]]. If there's one thing Cryotek's pride cannot stand, it's his own failures.

[[Chro]] can often be seen perching on his shoulder.

==Fiction==
===Theft of the Golden Disk===
:''Voice actor:'' [[Brad Venable]]

[[Image:Cryotektheft.jpg|left|thumb|200px|Step One: Teach a promising young criminal the ways of doublecrossing your superiors.]]

After gloating about his genius plan to steal data revealing the location of a sacred [[Maximal]] artifact, the [[Golden Disk (Voyager)|Golden Disk]], he dispatched his star pupil [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] to carry it out. He reminded Megatron that only Cryotek was allowed to decrypt the data.

Cryotek was no fool, however, and knew that Megatron would betray him sooner or later. He alerted the authorities to Megatron's heist, expecting his protégé would take the fall. Though when [[Dirge (BWII)|Dirge]] returned with the data storage box, it was empty, save for a Maximal security homing bug. Megatron had doublecrossed him! Cryotek pled for his lawyer as the [[Maximal Command Security Force]] infiltrated his secret lair. {{storylink|Theft of the Golden Disk}}
{{-}}

===Universe: Featuring the Wreckers===
[[Image:Derodomontatus.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Button ya lip, Mugsy.]]

When [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] returned from his [[Beast Wars (cartoon)|timelost exile on Earth]], Cryotek offered to rid him of his hated beast mode, wishing to take the powerful dragon form for himself. This process, however, left Cryotek disabled for some while. Upon his recovery, he discovered that Megatron had stolen his research and conquered Cybertron.<ref>[http://botcon.com/archive/story/characters/cryotek.html Cryotek's bio at BotCon.com]</ref>

Considered an outlaw among his own kind, and with Cybertron overrun with [[Vehicon]]s, Cryotek exiled himself to [[New Quintessa]], where he began a business partnership with [[Derodomontatus]] and the rest of the [[Quintesson]] race. Using the [[Oracle (BM)|Oracle]] shell program that the Quintessons had used to manipulate [[Vector Sigma]] since eons ago, Cryotek and Derodomontatus manipulated several groups of survivors of Megatron's virus into running various fool's errands. One of these groups, the [[Mutant (BW)|Mutants]], were instructed by the Oracle to journey to New Quintessa itself. A trap was waiting for the Mutants, and they were devoured by [[Sharkticon (G1)|Sharkticons]] while Cryotek and Derodomontatus watched. The Quintesson was amused, but Cryotek, striking him, reminded Derodomontatus of his race's incompetence and hubris.

[[Image:Cryotekmrrghmraghmrugghagh.jpg|left|thumb|250px|He has taken his first step RRAGH RREERNG REAHGORAGH!!!]]

Secretly, Cryotek suspected that Vector Sigma's true voice would break out through their deceptions, and so he placed [[Cyclonus (G1)|Cyclonus]] into another of the surviving groups, the [[Wreckers]]. The Wreckers traveled to [[Archa Nine]], Cyclonus double-crossed them, and Cryotek had the object of his desire, the [[Divine Light]], delivered to him. {{storylink|Betrayal}}

*'''Cryotek''' (Ultra, 2001)

:Cryotek, a [[redeco]] of [[Transmetal 2]] [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]] in blue, teal, and purple chrome, was a Target [[exclusive]] in 2001. It transforms from a robot into a cyborg-like dragon and can launch a missile from the top of his robot head. It also has a third "dragster" mode which is best forgotten. The toy has different wing claws from Megatron, a slight [[retool]] for unknown reasons.

: Both this mold and [[Tigerhawk]]'s mold share a gimmick that was dropped before release—a cockpit bubble where a tiny "[[spark]] figure" would have piloted the character. [[Hasbro]] dropped the concept due to it junking around with the ''Transformers'' mythos; it was feared buyers would mistake the "spark figures" as humanoid pilots for a non-sentient transforming robot, a la ''[[Diaclone]]'', instead of being representations of the spark essence of a living, breathing Transformer. The cockpit bubbles remain on both toys (and their redecos). The "USA Edition" (a limited Japanese release) of the toy includes the "spark figure".

==Trivia==
* The name "Cryotek" was first used by a hero from Hasbro's mid-Eighties action figure line ''[[wikipedia:Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light|Visionaries]]''.

[[Image:Bluemegatron.jpg|right|thumb|150px|Clearly a photoshop.]]
* Cryotek first debuted in an eBay auction by a seller with zero feedback, packaged inside a ''Beast Wars'' Transmetals 2 Megatron box. One of the largest flame wars the fandom had ever seen erupted over this early sample as fans argued over whether the toy was merely an easy Photoshop job or if it were a real production piece.<ref> [http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/browse_thread/thread/b10c751659b2305e?tvc=2&q= alt.toys.transformers - "blue bw tm2 megatron on ebay"]</ref> Even when a buyer received the "blue Megatron" from the seller and confirmed that it was, in fact, blue, claims of fraud were not silenced. It wasn't until [[BotCon 2001]], where a few copies of this early mispackaged sample were seen in person and its authenticity (and name) confirmed by [[3H]] did the fandom finally simmer down.

{{quote|Definitely faked, looking at the bottom of the box. There's no consistency in the brightness/readability of the fonts. Especially considering the angles of the boxes below it, for the way it would be pointing. Plus the bottom looks like it's just stuck ontop of the pic.|Brendocon, alt.toys.transformers}}

* Cryotek will eat your dreams.<ref>[http://members.aol.com/aaronbourque/cryotekwarning.jpg It's true!]</ref>

* Cryotek's CGI model in "Theft of the Golden Disc" is based on ''[[Energon (toyline)|Energon]]'' [[Shockblast (Energon)|Shockblast]] with a new head. His voice was patterned after actor [[wikipedia:Sydney Greenstreet|Sydney Greenstreet]].

Awa64: Proper disambiguation

{{disambig3|Bulkhead}}
:''Bulkhead is an [[Autobot]] from the [[Energon (franchise)|Energon]] portion of the [[Unicron Trilogy]] [[continuity family]].''

'''Bulkhead''' might seem like a daft old codger at first. And, to be fair, he kind of is. But he's also a seasoned veteran of countless battles, and is ''still'' more than capable in his role as an aerial defense soldier; precious few are his equal. His strength and firepower are backed by a long lifetime of hard knocks that have given him incredibly skill and knowledge of aerial combat strategy.

Despite his age, he's impulsive and eager to spring into battle, loving a good brawl. This is in stark contrast to his cousin and occasional teammate [[Quickstrike (Energon)|Quickstrike]], who prefers a much more strategic attack plan to make sure battles are as short as possible.

:''Japanese name'': '''Sprung'''
:''Hungarian name'': '''Tűzfal''' (means Firewall, close)

==Fiction==
===''Energon'' animated continuity===
:''Voice actor: [[French Tickner]] (US), ??? (Japan)''

===Dreamwave ''Energon'' comic===

==Toys==
===Energon===
*'''Bulkhead''' (Ultra, 2004)
:''Japanese ID number'': '''SC-20'''

: Bulkhead transforms into a large Cybertronic assault helicopter somewhat resembling an Apache. He has a double-barreled spring-loaded missile launcher on each stabilizer wing, plus pulling the trigger on his tailfin activates a gear that spins his rotor blades. Both [[gimmick]]s are available in robot mode, though the rotor mechanism becomes a hand-held weapon.

: Bulkhead cannot [[Powerlinx]] with other Autobot toys; instead, his size-class' gimmick is to Powerlinx with extra parts for form a "brute mode". In this case, Bulkhead comes with an artillery drone that features electronic light-and-sound action. This drone can attach to the underside of Bulkhead's copter mode to form a sort of thruster pack. In robot mode, it forms a large backpack, with the thrusters unfolding to become large cannon/claw arms. These arms also become legs for the drone's "walker" mode, giving it something to do when not attached to Bulkhead.

: The Japanese release of Bulkhead has a variety of minor plastic-color differences, mainly making him a little more primary-colored and turning his legs a more blueish-gray. This has the effect of making him very dimly look like [[Springer]], who the Japanese version is named after.

: This mold was also used to make ''Energon'' Quickstrike.

==Trivia==
* According to [[Aaron Archer]], Bulkhead's goggles-and-mustache look was inspired by Paul Teutul Sr. from ''[http://turbo.discovery.com/american-chopper/american-chopper.html American Chopper]''.
